Diana 1892
Augustus Saint-Gaudens
Diana
Diana, is the revered Roman Goddess of the Hunt
Stands on one foot arched upon a sphere, as the other extends for balance
Positions her earthly tools by hoisting up her mighty bow and arrow
Grasps the bow with muscular arms extending a poised, clinched hand
Clenches her arrow with nimble fingers stretching back the bowstring
Arches her back (ever so slightly) with the tension from the pull
Tightens her neck as she flexes her long, bare body
Tilts her head keenly, to secure an optimal view
Targets her prey with sharp, trained eyes.
